well, the car passed the inspections. 
, so im gonna drive it tomorrow to work and see what kind of balls it really has. so far, it has surprised me with how quick it accelerates and how easy it is to drive. than gonna get my custom cat back (axle back??) exhaust done

not about to spend $400+ on a rim. and if i can ill buy some used ones since it will be cheaper. not worried about if they have a few scratches and what not. just so their around 15lbs and 17's.
anyway, took the cl on the highway today and it feels strong in all gear. has lots of power.
but the things that annoy me are:
when the windows are open its extremely loud inside the car above 50
and when cruising at 60mph the rpms are at 2100. fuel economy must not be too good at that rpm bc in my tl-p my rpms are at 1800 at 60mph. and i get 29+mpg. is that how it is in the other cl-s6's?
other than that, im gonna go and hook up my nitrous to it now

Want to maximize mpg's.
Drive 55 mph on the freeway.
You can find more info. here...

Some friends of mine up in Sacramento have been experimenting with this and they are getting ridiculous mpg in the CL, TL, and TSX.
I think it was 41 mpg in the CL.

When gas was $4/gal last summer I started driving 50 mph just to see what kind of impact it was going to have on my mpg. I was driving a '06 Mazda 3, 5 speed at the time. 2 tankfuls, I was averaging close to 50 mpg.
I kept getting pulled over by NJ State Troopers(no tickets) and harassed by semi truck drivers even though I was always driving on the slow lane.

Mine has the holes and a gouge in the center top from when I did not pull far enough into my garage and the door hit it.
It also has 170k of freeway micro chips that don't show up in pictures but drive me crazy when I get within ten feet of the car.
150 to paint the new one is about I expected.
Thanks

since i added the short shifter kit. and it feels amazing going through the gear. i also cut about 3/4" of the threaded shifter pipe (pic below). and then drilled out the stock shifter so it sits lower when i screw it in. i love even more now.
